ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS. This Company is formed for the purchase and working the celebrated Frontino and Bolivia Gold Mines and works in New Granada, South America. The Di( eaters feel great pleasure in calling attention to the reports furnished by Captain William Goyen. It is well known that the St. John del Rey Mining Company is egpecially indebted to this gentleman for its success, as the Directo.s of that Company have so repeatedly and substan tially acknowledged, He was in their service for 16 years as mining engineer, and, by his practical knowledge and the introduction of machinery of his own invention, brought those mines to their present position as the most productive and best paying gold mines in the world. Captain G , yen is now engaged to proceed to New Granada, to superintend the operations of the F r( ntino and Bolivi a Mines, and is taking with him machinery of a like character. but on an improved principle, to that which he introduced and which is now working at the St. John del Rey Company's mines; an so satisfied are the directors of the success of this undertaking, that they and their friends have already agreed to take a large number of shares. The reports of Captain Goyer. and other reliable autho rities, made from personal observation, designate these Alines as equal, if not superior, to any in the known world. No charges whatever will be made for preliminary ex penses up to the time of allotment. Applications for shares may be made to the London and Cosinty Bank, Lombard-street, or any of its branches; or to the brok ers or secretary o f th e C ompany. All otments will be made according to priority of application, and in case of non-allotment the deposit will be returned without do~uction. Plans and sections of the property, with specimens of rich gold ore from the mines, and a model of Captain G °Yell's machinery, may be seen at the offices of the Coin- PanY, where prospectuses, reports, and every information may be obtained.

Ra T i his Company has been formed for the construction of a • lwaY from Douglas to Peel (passing through St. John's), in the Isle of Man. The improved trade of these important as well as the prosperous condition and increasing Population of the island, and the rapid augmentation of the number of visitors during late years, call for the immediate introduction of railways. The Agricultural capabilities of the Island are great; and its Mineral products are acknowledged to be rich in yield and av ore average value ; whilst around the Coast there are extensive Fisheries, and an unlimited supply of Sea - Weed for Manure. The expense and trouble, however, of land-carriage, have hitherto rendered these advantages com paratively unavailable. Slate Quarries are in active operation; and the quality of the Slate is equal in closeness of grain and durability to any produced from the great Welsh quarries. The Granite tear St. John's compares favourably with that now used in the Liverpool Dock Works, and would at once, by means of railway facilities, become available for export. One of the proposed Stations on the line will be at St. John's, where the Courts of Tynwald meet, and which is also the centre of the Foxdale mining district. The produce of these mines is now brcught by land-carriage (there being no water communication) to Douglas, a distance of nearly ten miles, whilst Coals and other important materials, as well as all necessaries required by the inland population, are conveyed into the interior by the same mode. Besides these items of traffic, the Fairs, which are frequently held during tho year in this district, must add considerably to the annual revenue of the Company. The principal towns are Douglas, Peel, Castletown, Ramsey, and Laxey : Douglas being the chief port, and the great commercial depot, as well as the principal place of arrival and departure of the steam packets plying to and from the Island. At the port of Peel the fisheries are prin cipally conducted, employing upwards of 1,000 vessels; the place of destination tor the produce is Douglas ; the route is tedious, and the transit by the existing means ex pensive.. _ The access to the Island is easy, and the means of com• munication with Liverpool, Fleetwood, Whitehaven, Silloth, Glasgow, Belfast, Dublin, and other ports, both by sfiilin,g and steam vessels, are frequent and convenient. Hence, Tourists visit the Island in large numbers, above 100,000 passengers having been landed at its Ports during the past year, Such Visitors, attracted by the antiquarian relies, scenery, and other objects of interest, would, as a matter of course, go by the proposed Railway from Douglas to the interior, and across the Island to Peel. The highest medical authorities bear testimony to the anlubrity of the climate and purity of the water. The picturesque is united with the more solid advantage of cheap Living, provisions being abundant and comparatively inex• pensive, whilst the rates of duties on foreign produce are so small as to render the Island most advantageous as a per manent place of residence. Her Majesty's Government and the Local Authorities are new expending upwards of £60,000, for the improvement of the Ports of Douglas and Peel The Electric Telegraph to England has been recently established. The Lines of Rail will be single, with requisite sidings. The length of Line will be about twelve miles, and the gradients easy throughout. The landowners and popula tion along it are most favourable to the project. From Statistics recently collected on the spot, with much care, by competent persons, and well supported by Official Returns, it is confidently expected that the Traffic wit re turn a good Dividend upon the Invested Capital, The fol lowing is an Estimate of the Traffic : Passengers, inclusive of Tourists £7,500 per annum. Goods Minerals, Fi s h, &o, 5,500 Pareds aad Mails £13,150 Working Expenses at even 50 per Cent. 6,500 Leaving for Dividend £6,6bo Plans, Sactions, &c., of the Line are completed, and all tittessary forms are being complied with, in accordance with the St.. ndin,g Orders of the Court of Tynwald to obtain an Act of the Local Parliament. Neither Imperial or Local Taxes are levied in the Island, and those heavy charges which tend so much to reduce the value of Railway property in England and other countries, no less than to diminish the Shareholders' Dividends, can not, in any degree whatever, prevail with respect to this Lino. An eminent Contractor's firm have agreed to purchase the land, make the Railway, provide and fit up all Stations,. furnish Rolling Stock for working the Line, and Teleg ra ph s , upon satisfactory teams. Interest at 5 per cent, per Annum will be allowed, until the opening of the Line, on the amount paid upon shares. An advantageous arrangement can be made with respon sible parties to Lease the Line for 7. 14, or 21 years. Forms of Application for Shares may be obtained from the Secretary, Solicitors, or Brokers of the Convoy, DR.

While Exchange Banks an 1 Credit Institu ions have been established to conne, t this country financially with almost every foreign market, and to give fact tries for conveying to our shores every deseri , tion of merchan die, it is remarkab'e that as soon as the operation ot , rnportng is performed the monetary facilities are w.thdrawn. The bills drawn upon our merchants mature, and must either be met by the mer chant's capital unaided or by sales. '1 hur, when tempo rari y there is an excess of any co rimodity imported. its price is undo y deprrvsed, and a ri at • losses are incurre Ordinary bankers and discount houses dislike making ad vances upon merchandise, having no organisation for exa mining the goods and correct y estimating their value. What they want are good bills, drawn on those who, know ing the value, have accepted for a fair advance. Et:visi , ii of labaur is here as elsewhere found to be most convenient and profitable. To meet this want, which every merchant must acknow ledge, the Warrant Bank ng Company is formed. The bu I ness of the Company will mainly consist in making dv laces upon deposit of the staple articles of produce, represented by dock warrants or other means of abs )lute assignment, duly inspected and v .lued on beh all of the Company, and with a proper margin to allow for depreciation. These advances will be ma :e in a ceptances by the Corn p•ny of the drafts of Its customers, and as every bill will re present mer handise readily convert ble, and b' at the same time secured by the whole ca cf a powerful Company, the exact position of which w.ll be patent to al', there can be no doubt that the whole Dis ount Market will be available when it is desired by th • holder to turn the bill into c ,sh. It will be readily apparent that the existence of such an institution, while it will be of great service to meraantr, an t increase the stability of the ent re class, will be an equal con venience to banl , era and ills :mint firms, f urrishing them with a class of bills rively obtainable. In order to render the due payment of the Company's acceptances certain, the Directors undertake that the entire paid-up capital of the Company will be invested, and, so far as practicable, remain invested in British and East Indian Government securities, a d upan deposit at call, and it is proposed that the apical thus paid up and invested within the first year shall reach the sum ot at least £200,C0(l. The field which exists for such an undertaking will b^ at once apparent from a glance at the hoard of Trader& urns of foreign impor s for the past year. which amounted (not to speak f home produce) to over £200,• 00,000. If we estimate the average stock of for ign goads held in warehouse, as equal to three months' o.,nsumption, it would represent an amount of £50,000, 0 00. Advances may also be made when deemed advisable uron mtocks and Shares, in permanent undertakings readily con vertible. A re sonable proportion will always be maintained be tween the extent of business undertaken a‘ d the cal ed-up capital. Should it be necessary, the latter will be increased to one million sterling, to bo invested as already indicated, simply as a guarantee fund. Branches will, in due time, be established at Liverpool, Manchester, Glasgow, ct T Direc• ors will not rec ive any remuneration until the shareholders have been paid £5 per cent. by way of dividend on their paid-up capital. Atter payment of 5 per cent. the Directors will receive one-fifth of the nett profits. No promotion money will be paid for originating this un dertaking. The preliminary expenses will be confined to the necessary disbursements Prospectuses and forms of application for shares may be obtained of the brokers, bankers, solicitors, and at the tem porary offices of the Company, but no application for shares will be considered un'ess a deposit of .£1 per share has been previCri ly p id to the bankers of the Company. In the event of no a lotment being made the deposit will be returned without deduction, and should the number allotted be 1 , ss than the number applied for, the payment in excess will be applied towards the balance of the deposit.

Every patters and evere decoration, it is said, were sent by the Sultan himself, and the result is a specimen of the most perfectly Oriental style of decoration, yet at the same time of the richest, quietest, and most striking that we have ever seen.

These patterns and massive bat ex quisitely brilliant cut-glass cornices, balustrades, and hand-rails are the materials of the decorations, which are blended together with a skill and effect that cannot easily be described. There was great difficulty in getting the cut-glass work no to fit ea to avoid the risk of fracture from vibration ; but Messrs. Green, of Upper Thames - street, contrived it somehow, though it is to be feared that the saloon will wear a different appearance after it hos crossed the Bay of Biscay to what it wore yesterday. the Indian panelling, and, in fact, all the rest the decorations, were intrusted to Messrs.

Oa that occasion her engines, though only of 350-horse power, worked up to 2,500 indicated horse power, and made 40 re volutions a minute, with a pressure of less than ' 251 b of steam. There was no attempt made at this speed yesterday, for, in the first place, the Tillie was in deep sea trim and rather down by the head with coals, so that if the speed had been wanted she could not have made it, and, in the second place, the river was so crowded with shipping that it was difficult to go a quarter of a mile without stopping or slow ing. The Prince, as we have said, visited the en gine -room with Mr. John Penn and Captain Comyn, the English commander of the vessel, and Colonel Ahmed Bey. His royal highness remained soma time watching the machinery, which was working with the apparent ease and perfect silence that seems to belong almost exclusively to the finished ma chinery of Messrs. Penn. There was only 201 b of steam while the Prince was below, but even then, while condensing, the engines were doing 33 revo• lotions a minute, though the stroke was only five feet and the diameter of the cylinders 71 inches. At this time the Talia was running 19. miles an hour by the land. When near Gravesend the royal party, with the members of the suite and the Turkish Em bassy, retired to lunch, while the Talia kept swiftly on her way down amid the crowds of shipping, which dipped flags as they neared the royal standard and kept them down till the vessel was almost out of sight, When off Southend the wind was blowing so fresh that every part of the ship, which, with much justice, claims to be perfectly ventilated, was as cool below as on deck, which is saying a great deal. The wind, however, was little thought of, but the masses of black clouds that gathered round the horizon were so ominous of heavy rain that a little below Southend, near the Mouse Light, the Talia was put about, and, turning easily in a small circle, again headed np the river. Then, indeed, the cold strong wind was felt in allitsbitterness. It seemed, however, to make no manner of impression on the Princess who, with Madame Musurus and Lady de Grey, had returned to the deck with his Royal Highness and sat as qu'etly in her chair as though the hard angry squall was a mere gentle breeze of the south. But their composure was not destined to last long. When off Gravesend pier, where the Princess had rot been since the memorable day she landed there to meet her Royal husband, the long impending rain came down at last, and after a futile attempt to keep it out with wraps and shaws the Princess at last gave way, and made a fair run for the deck saloon, fol lowed quite as eagerly, though perhaps not quite so actively, by the other ladies. The run back averaged a little over 19 miles an hour, which, considering that the Talia was down by the head, and put forth little more than three-quarter speed, augurs well of what she is likely to do in the smooth waters of the Bosphorus, At a little before 5 o'clock the yacht returned to Woolwich, and after taking a most cor dial farewell of M. end :Aldo. Musurus, their Royal Highnesses disembarked and drove back to town, having, to use their own expression, "enjoyed their trip most thoroughly." The Talia is all ready for sea now, but it is not expected that she will leave before Monday next. With such costly and fragile furniture it would al most be wiser if her trip across the Bay of Biscay were delayed till the equinox were past. But in whatever order her state saloons may arrive, cer tainly in machinery and hull a finer steam yacht will never have entered the Bosphorus. THE SUN, LONDON, WEDINESDAY EVENING, MARCH 16, 1864.

Going out of the course, after pro ceeding about half a mile, Emblematic refused, and retired to the rear; but in the next 200 yards O'Connell and Chas ter also refusing, the Liverpool winner went on fourth, a long way, however, behind Fly Fisher. At this same fence Lincoln and Woodford swerved on the wrong side of a flag, but were soon righted, and after they had gone a mile and a half Lincoln took second place, Fly Fisher still holding the lead, but at such a slow pace that Woodford and Emblematic were within an easy distance of the other two.

Tnis wts the claim of Sir 'William Somerville to vote at the election of representative peers for Ire land as Lord Athlumney. TheDettere.patent were pat in reciting the Act of Union which gave power to the Crown to create one peer for Ireland on the extinction of awry three Irish peerages, and also reciting that three Irish peerages having become extinct the Crown had created the petitioner a peer of Ireland. Mr. Sergeant Burke appeared on behalf of the claimant ; the Crown was unrepresented. Tae Lord Chancellor inquired during the course of the proceedings whether the house was bound to take thA recitals in the letters patent as conclusive evidence of the facts therein stated. Mr. Sergeant. Burke replied that their Lordships had always taken the recitals as sufficient evidence of the facts stated. Lord Redesdale remarked that, although it was a very bad practice, their Lordships were in the habit of admitting the facts so stated as proved, and he supposed they must do so in the present instance. The Lord Chancellor said that, whatever rule of practice it might be desirable for their Lordships to adopt in future, it would not be fair to the claimant to object to the reception of the evidence on the present occasion. He, therefore, moved that the claim had been satisfactorily made out. Claim allowed accordingly, LORD DE B LAQUIERE'S CLAIM. This was the claim of the Right Hon. Lord De Blaquiere to vote at the election of representative peers for Ireland. The peerage was created in the reign of George 111., the eldest son of the thi rd lord.

AQUATICS. UNIVERSITY BOAT RACE. Compared with the dashing work in both the University boats at Putney yesterday, the previous performance of the crews might be considered insignificant ; both evidently were on their mettle, and their exertions gained for them the unqualified approbation of their friends, and augur well for a fine race on Saturday. Still there are some trifling defects which ere then will probably disappear. Ihe Cam bridge crew went out shortly after eleven o'clock from Symonds's yard with new oars supplied from his store, and not yet painted, their own sets, which they brought from Cambridge, being disapproved of. They rowed up against the tide to the Ship at Mortlake, where they made a fine start, and rowed the course down on the ebb. The whole distance was rowed at a bursting pace, commencing at 36 and reaching 37 or 38 strokes per minute, when they were well into their work, and they were well together in the pull, although close critics were of opinion that some of the crew still threw themselves a little too much back at the end of the stroke, by which they lose time, to say nothing of expending strength, without a com mensurate effect. Their pace was certainly very fast, the distance being accomplished in little more than 201 minutes. The Oxonians went out from the London Rowing Club boat-house, at about 12 o'clock, and rowed a little above the Ship before they turned to go off, and were then nearly on a level with Barker's rails. They went off at a fine pace, and getting into the celebrated Oxford swing almost immedi ately, came down at a fine pace, rowing at the rate of from 38 to 39 or 391 strokes per minute. Their pace was acce lerated towards the finish, and the time occupied was about 201 minutes and some five or six seconds less than the Can tabs, with a little more distance but a trifle more tide. Bet ting was 5 to 4 on Oxford, but neither freely laid nor taken• The Stork steamer has been engaged by Henry Kelly, the ex-champion of the Thames, to convey spectators from Woolwich to accompany the race. THE SULTAN'S YACHT Yesterday their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales paid a visit to this beautiful ves sel, and made a trip down the river as far as the Mouse Light and back to Woolwich. The visit of their Royal Highnesses was kept strictly private as far as anything like State ceremonial was con earned ; but so far as popular reception, it was public enough. It was only known the night before that they would come to Woolwich at all, but that notice was amply sufficient to throng the streets with visitors of every class, who welcomed the royal pair with all those testimonies of affectionate respect which, though daily recurring,seem always fresh and hearty. The Prince and Princess of Wales arrived at Woolwich at half-past 1, and drove at once to the Arsenal, where the Talia— which in English means the Vanguard, was lying off the gun-wharf pier. Here a few of the chief officers of the Arsenal were in waiting in full uniform to receive the party, and here around the very prettily draped gangway which led down into the yacht were collected the rank and fashion of the garrison to do honour to the occasion. His Excellency M. Musurus, with Madame Musnrus, Khalil Effendi, First Secretary of Legation, Messrs. Etienne and Paul Musurus, and Col. Ahmed Bey, met their Royal Highnesses on the pier. No Royal salutes were fired, as the visit was a private one; and, conducted by the Turkish Ambassador, the Princess went at once on board the Taiia, the Prince accompanying Madame Musnrns. Lady De Grey waa in attendance on the Princess, and Colonel Keppel on the Prince, and the Duke of Sutherland, with Lord Alfred Paget, had also the honour of accompanying their Royal Highnesses. On board the Talia were Mr. John Penn, the maker of the engines; Mr. Samuda, the builder of the vessel; and Mr. Holland, its decorator ; but, except these gentlemen, the visit, as far as regards those on board the steamer, was strietly private. Their Royal Highnesses, after a short stay on deck, re tired with M. and Madame Musurus to the State saloon till the vessel was well free of the pier, and with the Turkish standard aft and the Prince's en sign at the main, began moving down the river amid the cheers of those who had witnessed the embarcation. It was scarcely a day for a river trip. The clouds were heavy and hung low, just letting the muddy shore at halt flood be dimly visible ; on either side there was more than enough wind for a vessel that did not want to sai;, and lumbering up across the stream were heavy galliots and barges, which look picturesque enough in Vandervelde's pictures, but nowhere else. Still the Royal party seemed to find charms in the scenery, or at least wished to see it, for almost directly after the vessel quitted 'Wool wich they came out upon deck, and the Princess, Madame Musurus, and Lady de Grey had chairs brought for them, and sat down aft, near the grand saloon, while the Prince of Wales went round and examined the vessel from stem to stern, from engine-room to stockhole. The Talia, though not by any means the first yacht which has been built for Sultans in this coun try—for, if we mistake not, the last Sultan had nearly half a dozen—is at least the first that has been built for the present ruler of the Turks. Cer tainly, if one may judge from the perfection of finish of that on board which the Prince and Prin cess took a pleasant trip on Tuesday, his Imperial Majesty is not likely to need another for some time to come. It is needless to go into a mere ship broker's account of all her excellencies—it will be sufficient that she is built of iron on the most ex quisite model, and that within 260 feet by 28 feet, which is her extreme length and breadth, every recent improvement has been introduced into the hull which experience could suggest. A more per fectly fitted, Lino', we may also add, a more beauti fully fitted steamer never left this country. Though her tonnage is only 900, and thoughagrend State great space is, of course, occupied by her engines and saloons aft, yet the accommodation forward has been so admirably managed as to give cabins and good messrooms to all the large staff of officers which are sure to be put on board of her in the East. Like almost all the Bosphorus boats, whether Sultan's or ferry steamers, the Talia is painted white, with rich gilt mouldings marking her external lines. Like other Bosphorus boats, too, which have to steer among, and now and then avoid, the caiques that in summer are always flit tinga mamidships s fi , ies over its w a t ers , it s w h ee l i s pl ace d on the bridge, so that the officer }7 ~~ ....
